Strict Press 180x1, 187.5 x X, 48 kg belt squat, floor pushups, combo laterals

This was a tough one. I good one but a tough one. This freaking move is SO freakin delicate. The groove has to be SO precise that one little mistake and it's done. Almost impossible to save. Not like any other lift I've done. Crazy in it's precision requirements and so much to remember and control under the most intense pressure!

Strict Press
45 x 5
65 x 3
85 x 3
105 x 3
120 x 2
135 x 1 good

150 x 1 strong too
160 x 1 ok ten pound jumps
165 small jump 160 not that strong
170 better groove
180 x 1 big jump but not tight enough at start

185.5 x X SOOOO close


ALways remembering ONE thing but forgetting the other! I remembered to really lean back at start but forgot to re lift the elbows. well. I didn't forget as much as decided not to as I was leaning back so much and thought the elbows were high enough
They weren't, or, something else mechanically or elastically is going on but it wasn't good enough. I should have made this .
then
185.5 x X bad miss. No where near layed back enough at start. Too much on my arms at walkout and not enough on torso
172.5 x 1 ! shit
172.5 x 2  better layback and elbows!
165 x 3 strong!
155 x 5 Best! 

48 kg belt squats 
( oly shoes no plates)
close stance
12, 14, 16, 18

these were tough. Liking this new groove. Not as much depth but interestingly, more leg involvement!
